More Lieberman Web Wackiness: Completely Unique Error Message!
Check it out.

Here's what you get when you type: http://www.joe2006.com



Now check out this google search:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22Please+check+back+soon.+It+will+be+available+shortly.%22

Your search - "Please check back soon. It will be available shortly." - did not match any documents.

1. Search engines don't work that way
Google works off of a database, and it can take several hours to several days for changes in a web page to find their way into Google's database.




What, you didn't think Google went out and actually searched the Internet, did you?

2. My point is not that THIS PAGE is not currently linked to google.
Edited on Tue Aug-08-06 03:49 PM by mhatrw
My point is that NO OTHER PAGE IN THE ENTIRE GOOGLE DATABASE CONTAINS THIS ERROR MESSAGE.

Compare to this google error message search:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=%22the+page+you+have+requested+has+not+been+found.%22

1 - 10 of about 16,500 results

4. Well, the phrase is probably a bit long for Google...

Though you're right -- entire Internet and very few pages even close:

http://www.google.com/search?as_q=%22Please+check+back+soon%22++%22It+will+be+available+shortly%22&num=10&hl=en&btnG=Google+Search&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&lr=&as_ft=i&as_filetype=&as_qdr=all&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&as_occt=any&as_dt=i&as_sitesearch=&as_rights=&safe=off

I think it's pretty clear that this hosting provider, or the client themselves, is customizing responses.

6. Google does phrases up to 10 words.
Edited on Tue Aug-08-06 04:00 PM by mhatrw
This is 9 words.

My point is that someone customized this message, and this someone could have just as easily customized any other message.

Anyhow, even a 6 word search returns no similar messages on the entire internet:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22back+soon.+It+will+be+available%22

3. Looks like the ISP doesn't have the bandwidth
Either that, or Joe has a low-bandwidth account.

Money always trumps politics. "Joementum", of all people, should know that.
